    Ukrainian Foreign Minister Culeba posted a video on social media on May 15, local time, saying that Germany has become one
    of the European countries that have promoted the embargo on Russian oil.

    Culeba said Germany needs time to solve the problem
    of gas supply.

    Within the EU, Germany is the largest buyer
    of Russian energy.
    Before the Russian-Ukrainian conflict escalated, about 50 percent of the fossil fuels consumed by Germany came from Russia, including coal, 35 percent of its oil, and 55 percent of its
    natural gas.
    On the 4th of this month, German President Steinmeier said that Germany's energy dependence on Russia has dropped significantly, and its dependence on Russian oil has dropped to 15%.

    However, Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi pointed out on the 11th of this month that Germany's main gas buyers have paid the Russian side in rubles
